An old poster from wartime England has become a huge hit - the message must resonate with many of us. You can now find this slogan on t-shirts, mugs, tote bags, key rings, and much more.

This can certainly be good advice for those sorting through lots of papers, or other clutter. (But please also take this advice: Pace yourself. Take breaks. Don't try to solve months or years of paper pile-up problems in one marathon session. Keep on - day by day, week by week - and you'll get there!)

A Note on Products

Products don't solve all your organizing challenges. I've gone into many homes and offices littered with products that didn't work - or maybe never got used!

But I do believe it is important to use tools (address books, calendars, storage containers, etc.) that are perfectly suited to you, both functionally and aesthetically (if that matters to you). If you find your perfect tools, you are much more likely to use them!

(Note: Except for any clearly-noted blog sponsorships, I do not make any money on any of the products listed here. I get some free samples sent to me every once in a while, and those are always disclosed.)
